Fourth Wing Dramatized Part 2 is the second half of the dramatized version of the novel "Fourth Wing" written by Rebecca Yarros, and part 2 continues where part 1 left off. The dramatized version really helps to add a little something to the characters, even though they're mostly still one dimensional (they happen to be more compelling with each character having their own voice actor, which made certain scenes more emotional.)
There are still some issues that persist throughout the series and that's because the novel had these same issues and the dramatized version is just sticking to a script, so to speak. Violet and Zayden's relationship is still mostly built upon lust. Violet is a Mary Sue who went from having people try to kill her because she was the "weakest link" to now being called "the strongest rider in her generation". All the characters are one dimensional. Claiming that the romance is enemies to lovers is confusing because I don't really see a "good attempt" at that trope in this book. Towards the end of the novel and the dramatized version Zayden even saysthat he was into her from the moment he set eyes on her. I maintain the pervious claim I made in my review for part 1, and that is that Zayden never planned on killing or even harming Violent. Even from the beginning.
There are issues that the dramatized version fixed, and I was surprised to notice that. Violent actually trains withher dragons in the dramatized version, as opposed to the novel where we didn't see any dragon training or bonding at all. We also get scenes of Violet training with various squad mates and even Zayden so she can get physically stronger. ALMOST none of the strange phrases the author threw in the novel (they still snuck in "holy fvcking hot" once.)
Part 2 of the dramatized version of Fourth Wing has at least 3 spicy scenes in it, they were entertaining though my main complaint about the first novel still stands (I'm a 33 year old woman and I don't care too much for reading about spicy scenes with people 10 years my junior.) I'm giving it 2 chilies 2🌶️ out of five chilies.
Overall, both parts of the dramatized version come together to tell a story that's not as flat as the novel, though the characters are all still one dimensional and the main "romantic" relationship in the series is based off of pure lust. Both additions of the dramatized version do the original story more than just justice, they come together to tell an actually exciting story. I'm giving this 4.5 out of 5 stars.
